The game changer: A deconstructed evening blouse

With the style spotlight back on the humble blouse, a handful of savvy designers have opted to rip it up and start again (in some cases quite literally). Take the neck-tie or slashed-to-the-navel designs by new label Orseund Iris – quickly becoming beloved for its sultry yet understated aesthetic – or Hellessy’s billowing, ’80s-inspired yellow blouse. As for Hillier Bartley’s one-shouldered style? Wear it to elevate everything from cigarette pants to blue jeans.
